Customer reviews

Great monitor…after some minor tweaking.
I bought this monitor for a Gaming Rig and have not been dissapointed! It took some minor tweaking when I got it set up, the automatic stuff just didn’t quite cut it. Mainly for black. I ended up having to turn down the brightness quite a bit so that black areas of the screen LOOKED black. Other that that I LOVE this monitor and do not regret spending the extra money on a large LCD.

Outstanding 19″ LCD for the price…
I purchased this 19″ puppy after convincing my dad that he needed my 1 year old 17″ Hitachi LCD for his office. The Hitachi was an excellent monitor, but I just couldn’t resist upgrading to a larger screen–especially with Sony’s rebate offer (now expired…I think).

First off, this screen looks beeeeauuuuutiful! I mean, wow, talk about clean, simple and sleek. I don’t need all the crazy bells and whistles such as speakers, USB ports, etc, that this monitor lacks…c’mon who the hell relies on a monitor’s speaker; likewise, if you need more USB ports, get a freakin 4-port hub for twenty bucks.

One other factor to note is that this monitor is only analog signal, no DVI. If half of you reading this even know what that acronym stands for, let alone what the difference is, I’d be very impressed. Basically, it’s a digital signal that should make images on the screen appear better. Guess what, I couldn’t give a hoot about this; in fact, my video card on my 1 year old Dell doesn’t even have DVI output. Unless you’re a gamer that has no life, no girlfriend and sits reading amazon.com reviews all day long, then don’t worry about having only analog.

With that said, onto the actual image quality. Well, upon turning the screen on for the first time, I prayed to the Lord Almighty that no dead pixels should appear. And the Lord heard my prayer and proclaimed, “Thou shalt not have any dead pixels, not even ONE, lest Sony give you a hard time with their dead pixel policy”. And the Lord gazed upon the screen and saw it to be good. Ah yes, Bible studies ver. 1.0 amazon.com style…

…anywhoo, this is the most brilliant screen I have ever seen. The contrast ratio is like 600:1…that means it’s amazingly bright and vivid. Be prepared to actually lower the contrast and brightness–that’s a good thing to have to do with a monitor folks. The onscreen menu options are clear, concise and virtually dummy-proof. For all you fretting about manually adjusting the screen size, rotation, alignment etc., fear not; this is an LCD and it automatically adjusts all the settings for you, like most other LCD’s on the market. I have the image size set at 1280 x 1024 on my Windows XP computer and everything looks magnificent. Text is clear especially using the “clear type fonts” available only on XP for LCD screens.

If you’re in the market to toss your 60lb CRT out the window and upgrade in style to an LCD, this is the one. Don’t worry about Sony’s newer models they have out now with DVI capability. Chances are your video card doesn’t even have the output so you’d be wasting your money. This is an EXTREMELY affordable 19″ monitor. Now’s the time folks…buy it.

A superb monitor
Bought this a couple of weeks ago. Looked great at Fry’s so splurged a little and bought it. Could not be happier. Elegant plain semi-flat black frame, looks pretty impressive just sitting on my desk. I’m not an expert but colors look great to me, type is clear and easy to read. Games are great with that 19″. I do a lot of work at home, a lot of teleconferencing. Lots of space, I can watch netmeeting and at the same time read thru my emails. For me it was worth the extra money.
